Re: [cobalt-users] RaQ3 Email broken user@anydomainonbox arg

["Bob Cruz" <bob@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

In the user settings, email aliases try to enter the whole email address
bobbyt@xxxxxxxxxxx
The other thing to do is check your virtusertable to see if your alias is
getting placed correctly, should look like;

emailaddress(alias)  usernid
bobbyt@xxxxxxxxxx  silly
silly@xxxxxxxxxx  silly
bobbyt@xxxxxxx  bobbyt

Whatever you do don't change anything in the virtusertable unless your
absolutely sure of what your doing.

I could be totally off.....

Bob Cruz
